context is that it’s a folder on Windows that isn’t shown by default so you have to open the “run” menu then type it in. Like a cheatcode for a computer.
First thing I have done since… Forever, basically, when installing Windows is to have it show me hidden files and folders in Explorer.
FYI: You also don’t need to use Run to get there. You could just type %appdata% into the address bar in Explorer. Unless that’s also now hidden by default… 🤔 I am still using Windows 10 and have zero experience with 11.

Show hidden folders and show file extensions are the first two toggles I turn on on explorer. Then follows registry changes to restore old context menus and use notepad++ instead of windows notepad.
